Problem
ASPHALT PAVEMENT SURFACES, DETERIORATE FASTER THAN OWNERS WANT
REFINING INNOVATIONS
More of the “good stuff” (i.e., high quality ingredients) is going to higher-value products, lowering the quality of bottom-of-the-barrel asphalt cement.
Oxidation
Water and UV rays oxidize asphalt cement, hindering its ability to hold aggregate in place and the pavement together.
SOLUTION
Anti-aging treatments for asphalt pavement surfaces with no negatives
INTEGRATE TO RESTORE
Our products integrate to put back the “good stuff” into a pavement surface’s asphalt cement.
SEAL TO PROTECT
Our products seal to protect the “good stuff” to help the asphalt cement hold aggregate in place and the pavement together.
